EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph by William Pankhurst Marsh captures the historic charm of Bognor Regis's seafront in the early 20th century. The image showcases a row of horse-drawn bathing wagons, each adorned with intricately designed spoked wheels, neatly aligned along the shore. The wagons, which were a popular means for locals and visitors to access the sea during the Victorian and Edwardian eras, are accompanied by groynes that jut out into the water, helping to prevent coastal erosion. In the background, the grandeur of the Royal Pier Hotel stands proudly, its elegant facade reflecting the clear blue waters of the English Channel. The hotel, which was built in the late 1800s, has been a beloved landmark of Bognor Regis for over a century, offering guests a luxurious retreat by the sea. Bognor Regis, a quintessential English seaside resort, has a rich history that dates back to the Roman times. The town gained popularity in the late 18th century when Dr. Richard Russell, a local doctor, discovered the therapeutic benefits of the town's mineral-rich waters. Since then, it has become a popular destination for those seeking relaxation, fresh air, and the rejuvenating effects of the sea. This photograph, taken by the renowned photographer William Pankhurst Marsh, offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time when horse-drawn bathing wagons were a common sight on the beach and the Royal Pier Hotel was a beacon of luxury and elegance by the sea.
